1. What Cinitaprida Cinfa is and what it is used for

Cinitaprida Cinfa belongs to a group of medications called prokinetics, which act by stimulating gastrointestinal motility.

Cinitaprida Cinfa is indicated for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux to enhance the effect of proton pump inhibitors (medications that reduce gastric acid production) and mild to moderate functional disorders of gastrointestinal motility.

2. What you need to know before taking Cinitaprida Cinfa

Do not take Cinitaprida Cinfa

  • If you are allergic to cinitaprida or any of the other components of this medication (listed in section 6).
  • If you have gastrointestinal bleeding, obstruction, or perforation.
  • If you have a history of tardive dyskinesia induced by neuroleptics (rapid and repetitive movements of the head, neck, trunk, or limbs that may appear months after treatment has been discontinued).

Warnings and Precautions

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before taking Cinitaprida Cinfa if you are an elderly patient and take the medication for a prolonged period, as it may cause tardive dyskinesia (rapid and repetitive movements of the head, neck, trunk, or limbs that may appear months after treatment has been discontinued).

Other Medications and Cinitaprida Cinfa

Inform your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or may need to take any other medication.

Cinitaprida may increase the neurological effects of some medications, especially those used to treat nervous system disorders, insomnia, and moderate to severe pain relief.

Cinitaprida may decrease the effect of digoxin, a medication used to treat heart failure.

On the other hand, some medications may decrease the action of cinitaprida. This is the case with some medications used to treat Parkinson's disease, abdominal pain, or respiratory diseases such as chronic bronchitis.

Taking Cinitaprida Cinfa with Food, Drinks, and Alcohol

Cinitaprida should not be taken with alcohol, as it enhances its sedative effects.
